My leg (&$^($%^&(#*&% hurts.

Apparently I've been walking around for a week on a partially displaced hip. Stoopy-PT-boy put it back in and today I'm actually in MORE pain. I'm told that this is "normal" - a combination of increased circulation leading to more swelling and pain, as well as currently having a wobbly gait trying to find some way to put my foot down that doesn't hurt. At least everyone at the office can SEE that I'm in a lot of pain and are generally avoiding me.

I called the nurse assigned to me by the work comp company and asked to be switched to a different PT. I told him a little of what happened yesterday, and said that while this guy is technically competant he has terrible communication and people skills and this is NOT helping me understand what I need to do to get better. Nurse Kevin should call me back today or tomorrow.

Have a condo board meeting tonight - and we have a lot to do. I intend to enforce focus and efficiency with my cane.

I wish there were teleporters available so you could see my PT
